Who is this for?

This article is for the ~10,000 or so people who received the Handshake airdrop from the original Handshake.org faucet (see screenshot). Keep reading to import your airdrop to Namebase to register Handshake names or sell your coins.

How can I import my airdrop to Namebase?

First, you'll need to find the seed phrase that you received from the Handshake.org faucet.You'll have received it from a page that looked like this

That's it! The coins will be done importing after 6 confirmations on the Handshake blockchain (~30 min), and you'll be able to use them to register Handshake names or sell them for dollars or bitcoin as you please.

Important: Don't re-use the seed phrase you copied and pasted into Namebase. If you want to generate a Handshake wallet outside of Namebase, use a different seed phrase.
